#VALUE! Occuring in formula result

I have a formula in cell A1:
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(B9,ALL!A6:E1091,5,FALSE)=TRUE),"",VLOOKUP(B9,ALL!A6:E1091,5,FALSE))
I used this formula to eliminate the #N/A that would appear if no value
is found in the vlookup.
The result in A1 was #N/A, but now it is blank due to ISNA formula.
However, now if I add cell A1 with others cells. =SUM(A1:A10), it
returns #VALUE!.
The blank cell as a result of the ISNA formula is causing this cell not
to add.
Please help.....Thanks,
Richard

Or if you don't want to have '0' in your sheet you may try
=SUM(VALUE(A1:A10))
entered as array formula (CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER)

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(B9,ALL!A6:E1091,5,FALSE)=TRUE),"0",VLOOKUP(B9,ALL!A6:E1091,5,FALSE)
- That works, wow such an easy fix to what I thought was complex.
In addition, thanks Frank your suggestion works also !

You may want to use 0 instead of "0".
Since =sum() ignores text and ignoring text is pretty much the same as adding 0,
it shouldn't matter much.
But if you ever need to go back to do more arithmetic, you might be happier with
the number 0--not the text "0".
(and if you want, you could drop the =true from your formula. It could save you
minutes over your lifetime!)

Adding some values on a sheet???Hello and thanks in advance. I'm working on a calculator for some Cable TV
plants designs. Here is what I need:
I'd like to have a drop down menu with several different values of design in

numbers on this type of chart below......
30 mhz=

Ch 40=
Ch 78=
Ch 80=
Ch 116=
Any ideas on how I go about that and where to insert and store the info for
each type of "value"

Multiple Value Lookup fieldI need to add multiple values to a look up field and I just found out that
new to Access 2007 I can add multi-values to my look-up fields. I just tried
doing this, but for some reason in the look-up wizard there is no check box
that says "Allow Multiple Values", so then I went to the Lookup tab in the
field properties to see if there was an Allow Multiple Values property and
there was none. Not sure if this would mean anything, but this table was
converted from Access 2003 to Access 2007.
Why do I not have this option and what I can do about it?

Item Value List vs Item Movement History Report (including cost)
I have been trying to create reports for previous points in time, but I am so
confused at this point as to what is what. I've ran an Item Value list, which
shows the current value of items, and got an extended cost. Then I ran an
Item Movement History Report that includes cost with a filter that begins
before the store opened and ends today. The extended cost in this report was
very close, but not the same as the extended cost in the Item Value list. Is
there something that the Item Movement History Report takes into account that
the Item Value list doesn't, or vise versa? Beca...

Formula on Actual Vs PlanHi Friends!
Could some help me on this formula?

today), I find out that on the 9th day i.e 9-Jun-05 on actual progress
I have completed only 4% of the Job, Hence what should be my forecasted
days to complete the job a 100% in actual, now putting it in a

100% = 30days (Plan)
4% = 9days (Actual & when the plan is 30%)

You would need to use a picklist field instead of a text field and

This is all done in Systom Customisation > Customise Form.
Other than this you could use a workflow based on Account Create.
